The Home<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Many fond memories come from experiences with family and friends in our home and in the homes of others. May you create and have wonderful experiences in a place you call \u201chome.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Home is often shared as the place where the heart is<\/p>\n

No truer words are spoken when you think of it like this.<\/p>\n

The laughter, the joy, the great memories of family and friends,<\/p>\n

Having shared experiences which ultimately comes to an end.<\/p>\n

It could be a grand celebration or a gathering of just a few<\/p>\n

For those meaningful times of sharing and hearing something new.<\/p>\n

We laugh at our bloops and blunders of years gone by.<\/p>\n

Some are so funny that they make you want to cry!<\/p>\n

The stroll down memory lane always seems to be a talk in the air,<\/p>\n

Or the confounding lessons we\u2019re learning when life doesn\u2019t seem fair.<\/p>\n

I would be amiss if only I said all of life were laughter and joy<\/p>\n

For many know there are heartaches and pains, \u201coh boy\u201d!<\/p>\n

The conflict and despair for many still exist today,<\/p>\n

Without hope and meaning they flounder on their way.<\/p>\n

The path to peace, love, and hope can be difficult to find,<\/p>\n

But Jesus is the One who gives sight to the blind.<\/p>\n

Then, we have a hope of a heavenly home for those\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>who\u2019ve answered the call.<\/p>\n

It is here that there is no pain, no sorrow, nor tears but rejoicing for all.<\/p>\n

Reflect upon your home and the memories you are creating.<\/p>\n

Is it a place of warmth, of laughter, of joy, and peace you are generating?<\/p>\n

Is it a place of conflict, of strife, and where tensions abound?<\/p>\n

Then you must know this, only in Christ can true peace be found.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
